Indiana Pacers

Indiana residents could not hold their heads high and call themselves “Hoosiers” without a professional basketball team, making the Indiana Pacers an important part of our identity. The Indiana Pacers have a deep rooted history in the city dating back to 1967. They have called the Indiana State Fairgrounds and Market Square Arena home before they made it to the NBA and moved into Conseco Fieldhouse, just down the street from the Colts new home. The Pacers offer the best of basketball in a state known for its b-ball reputation.

Pacemates

The Pacers rely on the support of their cheerleaders, the Pacemates, for success in their games. Rivaled only by the Colts Cheerleaders, these women rock out on the hardwood floors of Conseco Fieldhouse, entertaining fans during half-times and time-outs. But there is more to these ladies than meets the eye. In the off season, they work with charitable organizations such as the Riley Memorial Children’s Hospital to brighten the day of the down and out, reminding the community that somethings are more important than professional sports.

Indiana Fever

The Indiana Fever prove anyone who says “girls can’t play sports” wrong. Tougher than the Colts but just as beautiful as the Colts Cheerleaders, these athletic ladies are perfect role models for little girls who love sports. In 2008, two team members globe-trotted to China for the Olympics; one even brought back the gold. Indiana is proud of their professional basketball playing daughters, who will beat any man in any sport on any court.
